Has anyone tried tftp command to upgrade firmware ?. Could you please post me the command usage ?. I am running the TFTP server in a Windows machine. As soon as I run the tftp command, the WISP switch is simply rebooting without validating the remote server.

Netonix Switch# firmware upgrade tftp://192.168.1.21\C:/\TFTP-Root\wispswitch-1.2.0rc11.bin
BusyBox v1.11.2 (2015-01-12 16:20:46 EST) multi-call binary

Usage: tftp [OPTION]... HOST [PORT]

Transfer a file from/to tftp server

Options:
-l FILE Local FILE
-r FILE Remote FILE
-g Get file
-p Put file

Error: Specified firmware file does not exist
switch[925]: Reboot initiated by firmware upgrade from CLI
% Saving tftp://192.168.1.21\C:/\TFTP-Root\wispswitch-1.2.0rc11.bin to upgrade.binNetonix Switch# Terminated

All,

Any idea about the TFTP command ?. In our production network, we can't use web browser ( http/https). So the only option is CLI to upgrade firmware.

Thanks

Do you routinely use this TFTP server (are you sure the path is correct)? I know that my TFTP server programs don't need a full path, you just just use the filename that is in the TFTP server's home folder.

actually I tried the option > firmware upgrade tftp:\\192.168.1.21\wispswitch-1.2.0rc11.bin . This should work, but came out as an "incomplete command".


But firmware upgrade works if I execute the following commands via cmdline,

>cmdlline
$ tftp 192.168.1.21 -g -r wispswitch-1.2.0rc11.bin -l /tmp/upgrade.bin
$ firmware_upgrade /tmp/upgrade.bin


I was expecting the upgrade works from Netonix CLI, not from Linux CLI.

Thanks

TFTP upgrades from the Netonix CLI is actually broken right now. As you discovered you can still do it from the linux CLI, hopefully that will work for you until we can get that fixed.

I can confirm that both the Linux version of TFTP and SCP can be used to download firmware from remote server.
